Nick Jonas Is "Sure" His TV Character Will Have Gay Sex Scenes

Much has been made about Nick Jonas growing up in 2014—both physically and emotionally—and now the singer says he's ready to attempt new challenges in his career; challenges many straight males wouldn't.

In his new TV drama Kingdom, the JoBro plays the complicated character Nate, a martial arts fighter who viewers found out at the Season 1 finale is most definitely gay. Talking up Season 2, Nick and Kingdom creator Byron Balasco confirmed that Nate's sexuality would be further explored. "A man has needs," Balasco said at a recent Q&A for the show. "It's a deep internal struggle and it’s very difficult for this character."

When asked more explicitly what that meant—a.k.a. are we going to see man-on-man sex scenes?—the "Teacher" singer added further thoughts:

"[Nate] is not really okay with what’s happening at the moment...it's going to go there I'm sure. It's an incredibly important story on all levels—acceptance isn't the first word in this [fighting] world. I'm willing to go on the journey wherever it takes me...I'm committed."
